I love the woman that I’m becoming. it gives me chills. she knows her worth. she’s got boundaries. she’s motivated and ready to make it all happen for herself 🦋

Gender discrimination is still happening. Let us rise together. One COO could get a payout because her colleagues also spoke up.

Hi. I just completed my undergrad degree at the age of 39. Just thought I’d share.

I've interviewed 10 or 12 people this week for both dev and non-dev positions, and with one possible exception EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM was a woman, PoC, veteran, and/or LGBTQ+. Truly wonderful candidates too. If your pipeline sucks, the problem is not them -- it really is you.

i'm so sick of people telling me and other women that we don't belong in this field, and trying to hold us to comparatively higher standards. we're not going anywhere, so stop wasting your time. if it bothers you so much, then YOU can be the one to find a new industry.

One third of workers have experienced loneliness and isolation since the beginning of the pandemic. bit.ly/2DjDqA2

Hiring managers and job seekers, almost every piece of follow up info on that "short stints considered harmful," thread is wrong. From the ageism to the bias against career switchers. But I want to talk about the bad suggestion that better HMs let you "explain" short stints.

Respect women at work. Respect women at home. Respect women at school. Respect women in politics. Respect women in science. Respect women on the road. Respect women in the streets. Respect women on public transport. Respect women online. Respect women EVERYWHERE.

In every downturn and disaster in history, gender equality has been set back as women have stepped forward. On #WomenEqualityDay, we recognize this doesn’t have to be the case. spr.ly/6019GWafc #WeSeeEqual #ChooseEqual

These are just some of the abusive messages I’ve recieved on social media. It has spiked this week, but it’s been going on for a long time. But I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - I will not be silenced and I’ll never stop speaking out.

I don't wanna be arrogant but - I've paid my dues. Even if there's an argument that people starting out need to do a few free things to build a name for themselves - I have a name for myself. I have a Sunday Times bestselling book, and two more on the way (watch me).

Men tend to interrupt women far more often than the other way around, and displays of confidence and directness decrease women’s influence but increase men’s. What else could be affecting how women are perceived in your workplace? s.hbr.org/3a9wAt4

Just read the sex discrimination tribunal judgement against @splunk. Hopefully it will be reviewed by other companies and they will be more conscious of decisions impacting women. #equalpay #paygap gov.uk/employment-tri…

I once had an SVP who required at least one woman be on every hiring panel. I thought this was to ensure women candidates got a fair shot and felt welcome. Soon I realized this was also to ensure only candidates able to work in a gender diverse workplace were hired.
